Tasting notes

04/10/2012

Interesting nose of spice, black fruit, menthol and mint - very pretty and complex. A powerful style with a mixed floral and berry fruit and spicy oak with a touch of raisin. More complex than most with good depth of flavour. Excellent. Drink: 2012-2016 Alc: 15.5%. (17.17 points)
